The carriage was spacious and luxurious. Zhao Jue leaned lazily against the wall of the carriage, his eyes turning around Tang Yuyao unscrupulously.
Tang Yuyao turned her head to face the car wall, pretending not to know. Zhao Jue is a high-ranking prince with great military exploits, and she was born as a maid and is now a fugitive. Zhao Jue can crush her to death with his little finger.
With such an absolute disparity in status, she had no right to say no.
Fortunately, the carriage went faster and faster after leaving the city. The excessive speed made Tang Yuyao feel dizzy. She only focused on feeling uncomfortable and ignored Zhao Jue's disgusting gaze.
The woman leaned against the wall of the carriage, shrinking back like he was a ferocious beast. Her already white skin became even paler due to the discomfort. Her frail and pitiful look made people slowly feel violent thoughts after looking at it. I really want to... destroy her!
Zhao Jue's hand felt itchy, he raised it and pinched his chin, and his eyes slowly narrowed. Suddenly, he opened his eyes and lay down on his right side. When he saw Tang Yuyao looking back in surprise, he frowned slightly and reached out to grab her.
Tang Yuyao was led to lie down together, tightly held and half-pressed by Zhao Jue, but she did not struggle because the sharp arrow penetrated Zhao Jue's sleeve and nailed it to the wall of the carriage.
"Damn it!" Zhao Jue cursed and pushed Tang Yuyao away.
Tang Yuyao rolled to the side, still lying motionless.
The sharp arrows were still shooting in, and some even hit the ground. She couldn't help but shrink further to the side. Someone wants to kill Zhao Jue! She quickly came to this realization. After all, it was impossible to start such a big battle just to kill her. She did not have such a powerful enemy.
"Almost!" Zhao Jue pulled out the arrow and glared at Tang Yuyao as he spoke. If he hadn't saved her just now, he would not have been almost stabbed.
Tang Yuyao didn't say anything. In fact, if Zhao Jue hadn't threatened her, she wouldn't have come out with him. How could she have encountered such a thing.
The situation was urgent. Zhao Jue didn't care to argue with her. He carefully opened the curtain against the wall of the carriage. The clanging of swords and the sound of fighting could be heard clearly from outside. And because Zhao Jue's people reacted and immediately fought, the people in the carriage finally No more favorable arrows to enter.
Zhao Jue opened the car curtain wider to watch the battle. Gradually, his expression became serious. He didn't take many people out of the city today, but the people who wanted to kill him came well prepared. At the moment, a piece of the ground outside had fallen, including his There were many people, but there were only a few men in black sent to kill him.
This situation is not good!
He didn't dare to look anymore and hurriedly opened the door curtain, only to find that the coachman was already dead and lying in front of him. Fortunately, his bodyguard was nearby and restrained the horse, preventing it from running wildly.
But we can no longer stay here at this moment.
He didn't bother to tell Tang Yuyao to sit down. He kicked the dead coachman down, pulled the reins and flicked the whip. The horse neighed and pulled the carriage forward at a fast pace.
Tang Yuyao was unprepared and was suddenly thrown around in the carriage. She clung to the legs of the soft couch facing the carriage door before she stabilized her body and sat up again.
The horse was running very fast, and there was no sound of pursuit behind it. However, the sound of Zhao Jue's heavy breathing made Tang Yuyao instinctively feel dangerous. Who is the person who wants to kill Zhao Jue? He is so powerful. Does he have to kill Zhao Jue?
Tang Yuyao didn't care whether Zhao Jue lived or died. It would even be better if he died, so that no one would threaten her and no one would use her to deal with Zhao Ting. But...but if she was killed at this time, she wouldn't be able to run away.
These killers probably wouldn't give her a chance to explain. And even if he gave it, he would definitely not believe it.
Is she going to die again?
If she died now, she would not have lived as long as she did in her previous life!
If so, she might as well not escape.
No, no, if she didn't run away, she wouldn't be able to see Xiao Yunduo. Thinking of Xiao Yunduo, Tang Yuyao's eyes slowly became firm. She couldn't die. If she died, what would Xiao Yunduo do?
Without her, if Xiaoyunduo is found by Lu Zhongkai again...
Tang Yuyao suddenly shuddered, quickly moved to the car window, opened the curtain and carefully poked her head out. The sight of her was almost frightened. There were people hiding in the trees behind her. There were about five or six people. , jumping down from the tree to catch up.
"There's someone in the tree behind! Be careful!" she reminded Zhao Jue loudly.
Zhao Jue's face darkened, and he pulled the reins with one hand and turned around to grab Tang Yuyao's arm with the other hand, and pulled her out directly: "Pull the reins, you control the carriage!" He said loudly, touched the side of the carriage, and pulled out A long sword. At this time, six men in black had already caught up with him. He raised his sword and faced them.
Tang Yuyao didn't know how to drive a carriage, but she had to know how to drive a carriage at this time. She tugged on the reins with trembling hands and didn't dare to look back. She fumbled for the reins that Zhao Jue had thrown on the ground and whipped the horse's back.
The horse was still galloping, and the screams of the swordsmen behind him reached her ears one by one. Tang Yuyao just pretended that she could not hear them, and did not dare to look at them. She only looked at the road ahead.
Zhao Jue was indeed a master. Even with one against six, he was still not defeated. However, he was fighting a protracted battle on the speeding carriage. After killing four people in a row, he gradually became a little nervous when faced with the two people who were chasing after him. No more support.
"Hmm..." With a muffled grunt, Zhao Jue was stabbed in the shoulder by a sword, and he hurriedly swung his sword to meet it.
Tang Yuyao still didn't look back, she couldn't help.
The carriage was still running fast, and suddenly Zhao Jue screamed, followed by the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground. Tang Yuyao took the time to look back and saw Zhao Jue lying on the ground. A man in black was in front of her, raising his sword to stab him in the heart.
Tang Yuyao stopped breathing in shock.
Fortunately, the sword failed to hit Zhao Jue. At the last moment, he reached out to hold the sword, then raised his foot and kicked hard, snatched the sword and kicked the man in black out.
Tang Yuyao breathed a sigh of relief and turned around, only to realize that the horse had unknowingly run into the ditch on one side, but the reins fell off in the shock and she could not catch it. The danger was imminent, and she jumped out of the carriage without even thinking.
The pain was severe, her whole body ached, and she briefly lost consciousness.
It seems that when a person is in danger, he will burst out with indescribable strength. Such pain is no match for the fear of danger. She quickly regained consciousness and raised her head. His eyes were full of flowers, but fortunately his ears were still sensitive. Although no one was seen, the sound of fighting disappeared.
Someone must have died.
And so far, no one has come to kill her, so the person who died was probably the killer.
Tang Yuyao felt happy and rested for a long time before finally standing up with support on her body. Her arms and legs were scratched in many places, and her clothes were no longer visible. However, she picked up the jewelry after it fell on the ground. This was to be returned to Zhao Jue.
By the way, Zhao Jue!
There has been no movement for such a long time. Could it be that he is dead?
He can't die!
The dignified prince went out with her but died. Even if it had nothing to do with her, she would still have to be buried with him. Even Xiao Yunduo couldn't escape!
Tang Yuyao stumbled over and ran over, and saw Zhao Jue lying on the ground as expected, still holding a knife in one hand, but the silver clothes he was wearing today were stained red. She panicked and rushed forward: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
Zhao Jue closed his eyes quietly and showed no reaction.
Tang Yuyao shook her hands and slowly put them under his nose. She was so excited that she shed tears of fear.
Warm tears hit his face. Although it hurt so much that he wanted to just sleep like this, Zhao Jue still managed to open his eyes. He had lost too much blood, and his whole body was cold at the moment, but looking at the woman in front of him with a panicked face and tears in her eyes, his heart suddenly felt warm.
It turns out she didn't leave.
He thought she had abandoned him and left.
"I'm fine." He stretched out his hand to Tang Yuyao, "Help me get up."
"Great!" Tang Yuyao laughed through tears and hurriedly helped the person up.
It's just that the carriage was gone, and the two of them were in a place with no village or store. Zhao Jue was also seriously injured. The two of them had to find a place to sit down first, and Tang Yuyao helped to briefly treat the injury, and then met each other. He walked forward for a while, entered a small village, stole two clothes and changed into them, and then found someone to stay with.
The two set out early in the morning and have been struggling until the evening. After eating at the farmer's house and returning to the room, Zhao Jue said: "Don't worry, my people will come tomorrow. There will be no more danger." .”
There were no pursuers behind him, and all those who pursued him had been killed by him.
Tang Yuyao nodded and sat down in the corner covered with straw.
Zhao Jue turned around and looked at the bed. He looked like he really had no interest in women. He just invited Tang Yuyao to sleep with him, but he still swallowed it.
No matter what, she saved him after all?
Forget it!
The night was getting dark, and Zhao Jue was tossing and turning in pain and couldn't sleep because he simply bandaged the injury without properly treating it. Naturally, Tang Yuyao couldn't sleep while sitting in the straw. She looked at Zhao Jue quietly on the bed, and finally couldn't help but ask: "My lord, what are your plans to take your slave to see Prince An?"
Zhao Jue opened his eyes, but instead of answering, he asked: "I was just going to ask you, why did you leave Zhao Ting?"
Tang Yuyao was silent and did not answer.
~
From the time the sun rose to the time the moon hung high, Zhao Ting did not wait for Zhao Jue, and naturally he did not wait for Tang Yuyao as Zhao Jue hinted. Full of expectations turned into disappointment in the end, and he sent Chen An to ask someone to find out the news. He returned to Prince An's Mansion in the dark.
But just in time, people from the Lu family left.
Qin Yuan had just sent the person away and came up to explain to him: "The Lu family is here to measure the size. Because the wedding is scheduled for late next month, we need to see how the furniture in the dowry should be arranged."
